Read the first page of the thread about them going to a wedding out of town and him drinking so much he blacked out and missed the wedding. I'm not saying this dude's drinking "made" his wife cheat on him. But let's not pretend his drinking isn't a problem (and likely has been for a while). And the last thing he needs to be doing right about now is getting blackout drunk and making horrible decisions that could frick him bigly in court.
I read the entire thread. That’s why I’m saying let’s not collectively crap on him like some people have prior to seeing the update.
Again, I do think she was using that as an excuse to divorce him rather than fessing up to her affair. Potentially blowing it out of proportion.
My wife was so hungover she missed my LSU graduation. Not because she’s an alcoholic but because she tried to stay up and keep up with my friends and I. Innocent enough reason but the result is the same.
I also agree he doesn’t need to be getting hammered day in and day out. Just pointing out that she may have been leading him on that this was a bigger problem than it was.

I find this almost impossible to believe.... Not that she had some hang time, but rather that you graduated.

I don’t think he is blameless, he admitted to a drinking problem even missing an event because of it and before that he was depressed.
He said he had a drinking problem because his wife told him he did. They've been together for 8 years and I suspect his drinking has been consistent over those years. Now suddenly it's a problem? No, now suddenly she is cheating and she is making him think it is the problem.

Him not being on his shite gave the window for her to step out. She might have done it anyways, both at fault here though as he could have ran a tighter ship.
I think he was running the same ship he had been running since they met.

GTFO trying to blame him for her cheating.

No, he’s not blameless. Now that that’s out of the way, frick all this modern thinking that you have to be perfect to hang onto a wife. She’s fricking another dude while you’re married? YOU gave her a window to step out. YOU could have run a tighter ship. frick…all…that.
I think there’s merit to both positions and only OP can really know how much of it involved his drinking or not.
Obviously it’s common for women in this position to gaslight and act like the spouse's actions caused or contributed to it greatly, but no way for us reading to know for sure, although he did cite some instances that were bad albeit limited in frequency.

Correct. He has some blame as all couples do in marriage issues. But he’s 100% blameless for her cheating. You don’t cause someone to cheat that’s bullshite. It may have caused her to cheat sooner but that’s it. Be thankful it happened now before y’all popped out a bunch of midgets

Why can’t you post the bombshell yet? Need to confirm it’s not your baby first?
Posted on 7/10/23 at 12:07 pm to boosiebadazz
The only other bombshell I could think of would be the jilted wife or OP himself contacted their boss and they're both getting fired.

Has he told us how much he drinks? All I’ve seen him say is that he “slowed down”.

Listen baw, we can’t make this not hurt but here is your plan of attack….
1. Go to Mass.
2. Stop drinking cold turkey. It’s hard but doable if you fight it with physical activity.
3. Exercise ( it doesn’t have to be complicated. One of the best is hourly burpees. Start at 10 per hour and work up from there. 6 days a week no excuses.
4. Spend time outdoors doing Man stuff.
5. Drink lots of Water.

She had the autonomy to, instead of cheating, address his drinking like an adult. An intervention, going to therapy with him, etc.
Your husband’s addiction is a shitty, shitty excuse to cheat. If she tried to intervene and it still didn’t work, then she should’ve waited until they were at least separated before seeing someone else.

Crossing my fingers for pregnant.

This has a multi layered feel to it. It sounds like you have a drinking problem and she has had enough. You can play the blame game but it sounds like you need some help getting yourself straightened out. Maybe this will motivate you to clean up your act before making your next step in life. Good luck.

Wait….. what if the wife is randysavage’s mistress.

That would also be pretty spicy. I think he would tel us about the pregnancy thing just as a “WTF, this whore” think even if he wasn’t sure it was his.
